Read About the New Toys at Toy Fair and Beyond

By: Alison Marek
Jan 15, 2008

TDmonthly Magazine found the best new toys at Toy Fair, spotted trends and found out what specialty retailers thought about the show: Check out our special Toy Fair section to see the best of the Fair. Come back daily to watch the more than 120 demonstration videos* we shot at the show, plus excerpts from our Toy Frenzy! documentary, where we followed new companies such as Tails of Abbygail, Successful Kids, EthiKids, Frolicking Floaters, Puppetoy, Voxal and Beyond Chess.

To give you a head start on ordering, below are some of the newest board games that have come through ToyDirectory. Some you might have seen at Toy Fair ... but some you couldn't! We upload new toys every few days, so be sure to put us on your Favorites list.

*Videos will start uploading on February 27 and continue for the next several weeks, so revisit frequently!
